Etymology: Haploblepharus: haplos (Gr.), single or simple; blepharon (Gr.), eyelid, referring to simple structure of lower eyelid, which closes against upper eyelid to protect the eye. (See ETYFish); edwardsii: In honor of English naturalist George Edwards (1694-1773), known as the “father of British ornithology,” who was the first to illustrate this shark, in 1760. (See ETYFish).
